That's an extreme line movement on just normal money flow. Did some info come out or something? Our players made about the Liberty Bowl queen being white or something?

That's an almost unheard of line movement in that short amount of time. No idea why though.

I wish we had a receiver so good that he alone could cause a 6 point swing

Your 4th leading receiver going down shouldn't move the line even .5 of a point.

From what I understand it's all about keeping the money even on both sides. Vegas is happy with the vig alone.

Shows more people putting money on TCU. Line moved to get more money on GA.

Sounds simple but that's the way I understand it.

I'm not familiar with it enough to know what a "big" move is.

In any event, I'd rather be the underdog.

Some Texas oil tycoon probably just dropped a fat wager on his alma mater. Books now scrambling to get even money on both sides. Domino effect..

The line opened at -3 uga. It moved to a pick em maybe two weeks of being open and stayed that until today. So it was a 2.5 move today. Big money indeed

67% of bets, not money, on UGA too. HUGE $ on TCU. No clue why... OL shakeups more likely than Ridley. Gurley only moved line like .5 pts when he got suspended before Mizz a few years ago.

And the SEC is 1-4 in bowl games so far so there might be a perception that our teams aren't as competitive this season. Having said that, I have no idea how well we match up against TCU.

Yep,I didn't think about that but it could be a factor.
A buddy of mine would always wait out the smaller
bowls and pick out confrence trends for the later
parts of the bowl season and bet accordingly.Some years it paid off,
others not so much.

They saw the interview with Chaney and discovered we didn't fire him?
